Your swimming pool is a long-term investment, but like any structure, it needs proper maintenance to remain safe, functional, and visually appealing. Over time, issues like cracks, leaks, and surface wear can develop — and when they do, pool relining becomes essential.

At GIBBS POOLS, we specialise in restoring pools to their original condition — and often better — using professional relining solutions such as fibreglass. One of our latest successful projects in Panorama is a perfect example of how we bring worn-out pools back to life.


Our Recent Project in Panorama

We recently completed a gunite pool relining with fibreglass for a happy client in Panorama. The existing pool structure was still solid, but the surface had deteriorated significantly over time.

Another happy client, and another pool restored to its full potential.


What Is Pool Relining?

Pool relining is the process of renewing the interior surface of a swimming pool by applying a new finish or lining. This is necessary because, over time, pool surfaces are constantly exposed to water, chemicals, sunlight, and environmental conditions that cause gradual deterioration.

Relining not only improves the appearance of your pool but also:

  • Seals cracks and prevents leaks
  • Restores a smooth, comfortable surface
  • Improves hygiene by reducing algae growth
  • Extends the lifespan of the entire pool structure

At GIBBS POOLS, we carefully assess each pool and recommend the best relining solution based on its condition, usage, and your budget.


Why Fibreglass Relining?

Fibreglass (also known as fiberlining) is one of the most popular relining options in South Africa — and for good reason:

  • Waterproof & leak-resistant: Creates a seamless barrier that prevents water loss
  • Non-porous surface: Reduces algae growth and chemical usage
  • Durable & flexible: Handles minor structural movement without cracking
  • Low maintenance: Easier to clean compared to traditional plaster
  • Long lifespan: Typically lasts 15–25 years with proper care

For homeowners looking for a long-term, hassle-free solution, fibreglass relining is often the best choice.


Signs Your Pool Needs Relining

If you notice any of the following, it may be time to consider relining:

  • Cracks in the pool surface
  • Constant water loss or suspected leaks
  • Rough or peeling plaster
  • Stains that won’t come off
  • Increased chemical usage or algae problems

Addressing these issues early can prevent more costly structural repairs later.
